Wednesday’s weather

It will be a little windy and tinderbox dry in our foothills today. A ridge of high pressure has moved east of us, allowing stronger southwesterly winds to flow across the Front Range foothills. This means that already dry conditions will become ripe ground for any more brush fire development.

Expect unusually warm weather. The average high for this time of year runs about 78 degrees. We’ll be close to 10 degrees warmer.

Cooler air settles into the region on Thursday. We expect seasonal temperatures with a nice northwesterly breezy. Look for highs in the upper 70s and lower 80s.

Warm and dry weather follows for the rest of the week, with highs in the 80s, and we look forward to great weather on Sunday for the Bronco’s home opener.
